Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1.
It's coming late in the merge cycle as there are a number of merge
conflicts with your tree now, and I wanted to make sure they were
working properly. To resolve them, look in linux-next, and I will send
the "fixup" patch as a response to the pull request.
Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust
bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the
merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to
mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new
stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window.
There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at least
one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is working on
tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone else's linux-next
use), it does not seem like a big issue at the moment.
Here's a short list of the things in here:
- driver core bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o functions.
We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now,
depending on what you want to do.
- misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use
them
- debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for
places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing things
in complex ways.
- driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for
different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall.
- other small fixes and updates
All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned
merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved
"soon".

Core
----
- More core refactoring to reduce the RTNL lock contention,
including preparatory work for the per-network namespace RTNL lock,
replacing RTNL lock with a per device-one to protect NAPI-related
net device data and moving synchronize_net() calls outside such
lock.
- Extend drop reasons usage, adding net scheduler, AF_UNIX, bridge and
more specific TCP coverage.
- Reduce network namespace tear-down time by removing per-subsystems
synchronize_net() in tipc and sched.
- Add flow label selector support for fib rules, allowing traffic
redirection based on such header field.
Netfilter
---------
- Do not remove netdev basechain when last device is gone, allowing
netdev basechains without devices.
- Revisit the flowtable teardown strategy, dealing better with fin,
reset and re-open events.
- Scale-up IP-vs connection dumping by avoiding linear search on
each restart.
Protocols
---------
- A significant XDP socket refactor, consolidating and optimizing
several helpers into the core
- Better scaling of ICMP rate-limiting, by removing false-sharing in
inet peers handling.
- Introduces netlink notifications for multicast IPv4 and IPv6
address changes.
- Add ipsec support for IP-TFS/AggFrag encapsulation, allowing
aggregation and fragmentation of the inner IP.
- Add sysctl to configure TIME-WAIT reuse delay for TCP sockets,
to avoid local port exhaustion issues when the average connection
lifetime is very short.
- Support updating keys (re-keying) for connections using kernel
TLS (for TLS 1.3 only).
- Support ipv4-mapped ipv6 address clients in smc-r v2.
- Add support for jumbo data packet transmission in RxRPC sockets,
gluing multiple data packets in a single UDP packet.
- Support RxRPC RACK-TLP to manage packet loss and retransmission in
conjunction with the congestion control algorithm.
Driver API
----------
- Introduce a unified and structured interface for reporting PHY
statistics, exposing consistent data across different H/W via
ethtool.
- Make timestamping selectable, allow the user to select the desired
hwtstamp provider (PHY or MAC) administratively.
- Add support for configuring a header-data-split threshold (HDS)
value via ethtool, to deal with partial or buggy H/W implementation.
- Consolidate DSA drivers Energy Efficiency Ethernet support.
- Add EEE management to phylink, making use of the phylib
implementation.
- Add phylib support for in-band capabilities negotiation.
- Simplify how phylib-enabled mac drivers expose the supported
interfaces.
Tests and tooling
-----------------
- Make the YNL tool package-friendly to make it easier to deploy it
separately from the kernel.
- Increase TCP selftest coverage importing several packetdrill
test-cases.
- Regenerate the ethtool uapi header from the YNL spec,
to ease maintenance and future development.
- Add YNL support for decoding the link types used in net
self-tests, allowing a single build to run both net and
drivers/net.

Merge tag 'lsm-pr-20250121' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/lsm
Pull lsm updates from Paul Moore:
- Improved handling of LSM "secctx" strings through lsm_context struct
The LSM secctx string interface is from an older time when only one
LSM was supported, migrate over to the lsm_context struct to better
support the different LSMs we now have and make it easier to support
new LSMs in the future.
These changes explain the Rust, VFS, and networking changes in the
diffstat.
- Only build lsm_audit.c if CONFIG_SECURITY and CONFIG_AUDIT are
enabled
Small tweak to be a bit smarter about when we build the LSM's common
audit helpers.
- Check for absurdly large policies from userspace in SafeSetID
SafeSetID policies rules are fairly small, basically just "UID:UID",
it easy to impose a limit of KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE on policy writes which
helps quiet a number of syzbot related issues. While work is being
done to address the syzbot issues through other mechanisms, this is a
trivial and relatively safe fix that we can do now.
- Various minor improvements and cleanups
A collection of improvements to the kernel selftests, constification
of some function parameters, removing redundant assignments, and
local variable renames to improve readability.
* tag 'lsm-pr-20250121' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/lsm:
lockdown: initialize local array before use to quiet static analysis
safesetid: check size of policy writes
net: corrections for security_secid_to_secctx returns
lsm: rename variable to avoid shadowing
lsm: constify function parameters
security: remove redundant assignment to return variable
lsm: Only build lsm_audit.c if CONFIG_SECURITY and CONFIG_AUDIT are set
selftests: refactor the lsm `flags_overset_lsm_set_self_attr` test
binder: initialize lsm_context structure
rust: replace lsm context+len with lsm_context
lsm: secctx provider check on release
lsm: lsm_context in security_dentry_init_security
lsm: use lsm_context in security_inode_getsecctx
lsm: replace context+len with lsm_context
lsm: ensure the correct LSM context releaser
Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Finish the move to custom FFI integer types started in the previous
cycle and finally map 'long' to 'isize' and 'char' to 'u8'. Do a few
cleanups on top thanks to that.
- Start to use 'derive(CoercePointee)' on Rust >= 1.84.0.
This is a major milestone on the path to build the kernel using only
stable Rust features. In particular, previously we were using the
unstable features 'coerce_unsized', 'dispatch_from_dyn' and 'unsize',
and now we will use the new 'derive_coerce_pointee' one, which is on
track to stabilization. This new feature is a macro that essentially
expands into code that internally uses the unstable features that we
were using before, without having to expose those.
With it, stable Rust users, including the kernel, will be able to
build custom smart pointers that work with trait objects, e.g.:
fn f(p: &Arc<dyn Display>) {
pr_info!("{p}\n");
}
let a: Arc<dyn Display> = Arc::new(42i32, GFP_KERNEL)?;
let b: Arc<dyn Display> = Arc::new("hello there", GFP_KERNEL)?;
f(&a); // Prints "42".
f(&b); // Prints "hello there".
Together with the 'arbitrary_self_types' feature that we started
using in the previous cycle, using our custom smart pointers like
'Arc' will eventually only rely in stable Rust.
- Introduce 'PROCMACROLDFLAGS' environment variable to allow to link
Rust proc macros using different flags than those used for linking
Rust host programs (e.g. when 'rustc' uses a different C library
than the host programs' one), which Android needs.
- Help kernel builds under macOS with Rust enabled by accomodating
other naming conventions for dynamic libraries (i.e. '.so' vs.
'.dylib') which are used for Rust procedural macros. The actual
support for macOS (i.e. the rest of the pieces needed) is provided
out-of-tree by others, following the policy used for other parts of
the kernel by Kbuild.
- Run Clippy for 'rusttest' code too and clean the bits it spotted.
- Provide Clippy with the minimum supported Rust version to improve
the suggestions it gives.
- Document 'bindgen' 0.71.0 regression.
'kernel' crate:
- 'build_error!': move users of the hidden function to the documented
macro, prevent such uses in the future by moving the function
elsewhere and add the macro to the prelude.
- 'types' module: add improved version of 'ForeignOwnable::borrow_mut'
(which was removed in the past since it was problematic); change
'ForeignOwnable' pointer type to '*mut'.
- 'alloc' module: implement 'Display' for 'Box' and align the 'Debug'
implementation to it; add example (doctest) for 'ArrayLayout::new()'.
- 'sync' module: document 'PhantomData' in 'Arc'; use
'NonNull::new_unchecked' in 'ForeignOwnable for Arc' impl.
- 'uaccess' module: accept 'Vec's with different allocators in
'UserSliceReader::read_all'.

Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Finish the move to custom FFI integer types started in the previous
cycle and finally map 'long' to 'isize' and 'char' to 'u8'. Do a
few cleanups on top thanks to that.
- Start to use 'derive(CoercePointee)' on Rust >= 1.84.0.
This is a major milestone on the path to build the kernel using
only stable Rust features. In particular, previously we were using
the unstable features 'coerce_unsized', 'dispatch_from_dyn' and
'unsize', and now we will use the new 'derive_coerce_pointee' one,
which is on track to stabilization. This new feature is a macro
that essentially expands into code that internally uses the
unstable features that we were using before, without having to
expose those.
With it, stable Rust users, including the kernel, will be able to
build custom smart pointers that work with trait objects, e.g.:
fn f(p: &Arc<dyn Display>) {
pr_info!("{p}\n");
}
let a: Arc<dyn Display> = Arc::new(42i32, GFP_KERNEL)?;
let b: Arc<dyn Display> = Arc::new("hello there", GFP_KERNEL)?;
f(&a); // Prints "42".
f(&b); // Prints "hello there".
Together with the 'arbitrary_self_types' feature that we started
using in the previous cycle, using our custom smart pointers like
'Arc' will eventually only rely in stable Rust.
- Introduce 'PROCMACROLDFLAGS' environment variable to allow to link
Rust proc macros using different flags than those used for linking
Rust host programs (e.g. when 'rustc' uses a different C library
than the host programs' one), which Android needs.
- Help kernel builds under macOS with Rust enabled by accomodating
other naming conventions for dynamic libraries (i.e. '.so' vs.
'.dylib') which are used for Rust procedural macros. The actual
support for macOS (i.e. the rest of the pieces needed) is provided
out-of-tree by others, following the policy used for other parts of
the kernel by Kbuild.
- Run Clippy for 'rusttest' code too and clean the bits it spotted.
- Provide Clippy with the minimum supported Rust version to improve
the suggestions it gives.
- Document 'bindgen' 0.71.0 regression.
'kernel' crate:
- 'build_error!': move users of the hidden function to the documented
macro, prevent such uses in the future by moving the function
elsewhere and add the macro to the prelude.
- 'types' module: add improved version of 'ForeignOwnable::borrow_mut'
(which was removed in the past since it was problematic); change
'ForeignOwnable' pointer type to '*mut'.
- 'alloc' module: implement 'Display' for 'Box' and align the 'Debug'
implementation to it; add example (doctest) for 'ArrayLayout::new()'
- 'sync' module: document 'PhantomData' in 'Arc'; use
'NonNull::new_unchecked' in 'ForeignOwnable for Arc' impl.
- 'uaccess' module: accept 'Vec's with different allocators in
'UserSliceReader::read_all'.
- 'workqueue' module: enable run-testing a couple more doctests.
- 'error' module: simplify 'from_errno()'.
- 'block' module: fix formatting in code documentation (a lint to catch
these is being implemented).
- Avoid 'unwrap()'s in doctests, which also improves the examples by
showing how kernel code is supposed to be written.
- Avoid 'as' casts with 'cast{,_mut}' calls which are a bit safer.

Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org>
Previously, the `ForeignOwnable` trait had a method called `borrow_mut`
that was intended to provide mutable access to the inner value. However,
the method accidentally made it possible to change the address of the
object being modified, which usually isn't what we want. (And when we
want that, it can be done by calling `from_foreign` and `into_foreign`,
like how the old `borrow_mut` was implemented.)
In this patch, we introduce an alternate definition of `borrow_mut` that
solves the previous problem. Conceptually, given a pointer type `P` that
implements `ForeignOwnable`, the `borrow_mut` method gives you the same
kind of access as an `&mut P` would, except that it does not let you
change the pointer `P` itself.
This is analogous to how the existing `borrow` method provides the same
kind of access to the inner value as an `&P`.
Note that for types like `Arc`, having an `&mut Arc<T>` only gives you
immutable access to the inner `T`. This is because mutable references
assume exclusive access, but there might be other handles to the same
reference counted value, so the access isn't exclusive. The `Arc` type
implements this by making `borrow_mut` return the same type as `borrow`.

The `kernel` crate relies on both `coerce_unsized` and `dispatch_from_dyn`
unstable features.
Alice Ryhl has proposed [1] the introduction of the unstable macro
`SmartPointer` to reduce such dependence, along with a RFC patch [2].
Since Rust 1.81.0 this macro, later renamed to `CoercePointee` in
Rust 1.84.0 [3], has been fully implemented with the naming discussion
resolved.
This feature is now on track to stabilization in the language.
In order to do so, we shall start using this macro in the `kernel` crate
to prove the functionality and utility of the macro as the justification
of its stabilization.
This patch makes this switch in such a way that the crate remains
backward compatible with older Rust compiler versions,
via the new Kconfig option `RUSTC_HAS_COERCE_POINTEE`.
A minimal demonstration example is added to the
`samples/rust/rust_print_main.rs` module.

action in `Devres::drop`, handle the case where the action has been

The sibling `build_assert!` is already in the prelude, it makes sense
that a "core"/"language" facility like this is part of the prelude and
users should not be defining their own one (thus there should be no risk
of future name collisions and we would want to be aware of them anyway).
Thus add `build_error!` into the prelude.

Users were using the hidden exported `kernel::build_error` function
instead of the intended `kernel::build_error!` macro, e.g. see the
previous commit.
To force to use the macro, move it into the `build_assert` module,
thus making it a compilation error and avoiding a collision in the same
"namespace". Using the function now would require typing the module name
(which is hidden), not just a single character.
Now attempting to use the function will trigger this error with the
right suggestion by the compiler:
error[E0423]: expected function, found macro `kernel::build_error`
--> samples/rust/rust_minimal.rs:29:9
|
29 | kernel::build_error();
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ not a function
|
help: use `!` to invoke the macro
|
29 | kernel::build_error!();
| +
An alternative would be using an alias, but it would be more complex
and moving it into the module seems right since it belongs there and
reduces the amount of code at the crate root.
Keep the `#[doc(hidden)]` inside `build_assert` in case the module is
not hidden in the future.

Running Clippy for `rusttest` code is useful to catch issues there too,
even if the code is not as critical. In the future, this code may also
run in kernelspace and could be copy-pasted. Thus it is useful to keep
it under the same standards. For instance, it will now make us add
`// SAFETY` comments.
It also makes everything more consistent.
Thus clean the few issues spotted by Clippy and start running it.

To ensure that a `pci::Bar`, and hence the I/O memory mapping, can't
out-live the PCI device, the `pci::Bar` type is always embedded into a
`Devres` container, such that the `pci::Bar` is revoked once the device
is unbound and hence the I/O mapped memory is unmapped.
A `pci::Bar` can be requested with (`pci::Device::iomap_region_sized`) or
without (`pci::Device::iomap_region`) a const generic representing the
minimal requested size of the I/O mapped memory region. In case of the
latter only runtime checked I/O reads / writes are possible.

Add a Rust abstraction for the kernel's devres (device resource
management) implementation.
The Devres type acts as a container to manage the lifetime and
accessibility of device bound resources. Therefore it registers a
devres callback and revokes access to the resource on invocation.
Users of the Devres abstraction can simply free the corresponding
resources in their Drop implementation, which is invoked when either the
Devres instance goes out of scope or the devres callback leads to the
resource being revoked, which implies a call to drop_in_place().

I/O memory is typically either mapped through direct calls to ioremap()
or subsystem / bus specific ones such as pci_iomap().
Even though subsystem / bus specific functions to map I/O memory are
based on ioremap() / iounmap() it is not desirable to re-implement them
in Rust.
Instead, implement a base type for I/O mapped memory, which generically
provides the corresponding accessors, such as `Io::readb` or
`Io:try_readb`.
`Io` supports an optional const generic, such that a driver can indicate
the minimal expected and required size of the mapping at compile time.
Correspondingly, calls to the 'non-try' accessors, support compile time
checks of the I/O memory offset to read / write, while the 'try'
accessors, provide boundary checks on runtime.
`IoRaw` is meant to be embedded into a structure (e.g. pci::Bar or
io::IoMem) which creates the actual I/O memory mapping and initializes
`IoRaw` accordingly.
To ensure that I/O mapped memory can't out-live the device it may be
bound to, subsystems must embed the corresponding I/O memory type (e.g.
pci::Bar) into a `Devres` container, such that it gets revoked once the
device is unbound.

Revocable allows access to objects to be safely revoked at run time.
This is useful, for example, for resources allocated during device probe;
when the device is removed, the driver should stop accessing the device
resources even if another state is kept in memory due to existing
references (i.e., device context data is ref-counted and has a non-zero
refcount after removal of the device).

Most subsystems use some kind of ID to match devices and drivers. Hence,
we have to provide Rust drivers an abstraction to register an ID table
for the driver to match.
Generally, those IDs are subsystem specific and hence need to be
implemented by the corresponding subsystem. However, the `IdArray`,
`IdTable` and `RawDeviceId` types provide a generalized implementation
that makes the life of subsystems easier to do so.

Implement the generic `Registration` type and the `RegistrationOps`
trait.
The `Registration` structure is the common type that represents a driver
registration and is typically bound to the lifetime of a module. However,
it doesn't implement actual calls to the kernel's driver core to register
drivers itself.
Instead the `RegistrationOps` trait is provided to subsystems, which have
to implement `RegistrationOps::register` and
`RegistrationOps::unregister`. Subsystems have to provide an
implementation for both of those methods where the subsystem specific
variants to register / unregister a driver have to implemented.
For instance, the PCI subsystem would call __pci_register_driver() from
`RegistrationOps::register` and pci_unregister_driver() from
`DrvierOps::unregister`.
